Friday arrives and finds us baking the first batch of cookies (gingerbread), also of seasonal significance you find bubbling on the stove top, Imbuljuta (the Maltese chocolate chestnut soup) a sweet soup with cinnamon, tangerine peel, cloves and allspice...mmm the smell is heavenly.

Christmas cards to write, mistletoe to hang and stockings to finish embroidering... yes, Christmas is in the air, may your weekend be filled with seasonal cheer.

Your home looks so warm and lovely! I've appreciated the last few comments you left me...a far away friend who provided comfort with your words. I hope your pregnancy is going well, it's nice to know we share this. You sound like you have been busy (a market? you're crazy!) and I love the stamps you made below- you are so talented!
